The second book, ''[[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/268295/the-dusk-guard-beyond-the-borderlands Beyond The Borderlands]]'', follows the griffon Blade Sunchaser who is on the run due to the fallout from the previous story. She travels to the bleak and cold Ocean of Endless Ice on the tail of a Unicorn supremacy cultist in order to fulfill her newest contract. She’ll face anything, go anywhere, and do whatever it takes to see her mission through. Even start a war...
